Yeah, I had read that one, it's cute. I tended to go on the short side of things with my emails. I think my emails were obviously not a generic mail-out, but mostly I thought a link to Amazon (where there is a free sample and more detailed about myself and the book) was a better choice than a long email. I guess I was looking at things from my own perspective, and thinking that - if it was me - anything too long would get the tl;dr flick.
